Instead of papering over the issue in libvirt better ship a non-broken iproute2 in openSUSE 13.2. real fix: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/shemminger/iproute2.git/commit/...
Oh, thank you for finding that, I should've done my homework! Since it really is just a bug on iproute2 side in openSUSE, I'd rather keep it in its original state. And since the patch is already pushed, I'm inclining to reverting it.
Other opinions?
Quoting a colleague of mine working on the network stack:
[this is] a regression in (upstream) iproute2 3.16, fixed in 3.17. bnc#907093 has been created for it. (Factory is also affected but a submit request is already on its way.)
So I think we should keep that for those running the buggy 3.16.
openSUSE has to fix their package and to serve a bugfix update, full stop. Thanks, //richard
